Abstract :
In this paper we predict how a valence band excitation couples with TE-polarized THz radiation in a microcavity. This configuration would allow easier measurements of polaritons and antipolaritons without the need to grow the resonator in a slanted prism, as in usual TM mode, conduction band realizations.
